Why are energy sources less needed in the winter? I assume that energy usage higher in the winter months.

Sometimes I wonder if these producers that always wear helmets, like Daft Punk or Marshmello, ever send someone else to perform at shows in their place. How would anyone ever know?

What’s the formula here?

Oh man - quite possibly my favorite game of all time. I find it funny that the remastered graphics look exactly like how I remember the game (though they're clearly improved).

It sounds like you're itching to solve Principal-level problems, so the obvious answer here is to get promoted (in the IC track) until your work is hard enough.

It's becoming more and more clear that hybrid WFH is the way of the future, and I couldn't be happier. It's the best of both worlds.

by dangwu 6y ago
It probably won’t be the norm in the future. I’ve been waiting for a “Big 4” company to announce some sort of permanent WFH plan but they haven’t budged, and that’s a bad sign.

The point that "on a long enough time line, wisdom is always more valuable than knowledge" is pretty irrelevant to tech companies. They hire engineers to get stuff done quickly - not slowly gather "wisdom". The average t

Update: I have successfully appealed the rejection for Guideline 5.1.1. However, they decided to immediately reject me for a different guideline - Guideline 4.2.2 - Design - Minimum Functionality. > We are writing to let you know the app

I submit it twice and got rejected twice, presumably by 2 different reviewers.

The changes in the update aren't related to the rejection at all, unfortunately.

by dangwu 6y ago
That sounds a bit risky - like if Apple finds out I'll get removed from the store altogether. I guess I might not have any other option if my appeal fails...

HN has unofficial write APIs, since they don't prevent cross-site request forgery. This enables HN apps that upvote/comment/post to work. Thanks, HN ;)

Do you think having an unusual TLD (travel) is hurting you at all? If someone told an average person to go to "Cycle.travel", I'm not sure that they would understand that to be a web address.

Everywhere I’ve worked has done phased deployments. Shit still goes wrong all the time. Also, I would wager that most outages are not due to code deployments, but live config changes.

Because of aforementioned security protocols. It's much harder to get away with credit card fraud.

by dangwu 6y ago
1. Credit card fraud is an extremely small percentage of credit card activity. What you are proposing would likely not be. 2. Chargebacks are disputed, and as a storefront you can prove that you are not liable. Merchants can review the iden

It's anonymous enough if you never reveal your identity. It would be like driving somewhere, paying cash, then later the cash is revealed to be fake. And there's no way for the storefront to test for legitimacy until an hour later

I strongly disagree. I think you are overestimating the morality of the common man. If you enable anonymous purchasing of items with no proof of funds being sent, it will be abused. A lot. No storefront will sign up for this. This is very d
